"This is cheating because it’s four books in one. But Liebling wrote so well about so much, a compendium is merited. Two of these are reporting from World War II, where no other writer, in my opinion, could touch him. “The Road Back to Paris” is an epic dispatch full of hard times and the finest lyricism. The other two books are about France, food, wine, memory, boxing. I wouldn’t argue if you insisted that Liebling’s greatest subject was actually New York City, or even Louisiana. It’s too bad there’s not a twelve-pack."

While this movie does lack some of the charm and grit that made the original trilogy as epic as it was, it did have its own merits.

I've always felt it's important to allow movies that are a part of a larger universe stand on their own while also being judged as a part of said saga. When that approach is taken, I think most people would be hard pressed to not enjoy this movie.

Also, double bladed lightsaber and Ray Park gymnastics. Enough said.


P.S. Also, podracers!
